Unprivileged userns (as seen on recent Ubuntu, and on Debian if you adjust
/proc/sys/kernel/unprivileged_userns_clone) avoids bwrap needing to be
setuid root in the init namespace (before it creates new namespaces).
It still needs to exercise capabilities in its newly-created namespace
either way.

I'm surprised this works. bwrap is an "adverb" like chroot/sudo/env, so
I would expect it to want to execute the wrapped thumbnailer?
